Amazon.com If the four-CD King of the Blues box is too big a bite out of your budget, this is a good primer of early B.B. King gems. "You Upset Me Baby," "Sweet Sixteen," "Sweet Little Angel," and "Everyday I Have the Blues" are among his career-founding hits. There's even his rare take on the Elmore James classic "Dust My Broom," reinterpreted sans James's trademark slide guitar licks. The youthful exuberance of King's singing is a joy to hear on all of these 20 tracks. And the influence of T-Bone Walker and swinging jump blues is at its most naked on these sides from the R.P.M., Kent, and Crown labels. --Ted Drozdowski, ISBN13: B000000WHZ ISBN10: B000000WHZ Material Type: audioCDAmazon.com If the four-CD King of the Blues box is too big a bite out of your budget, this is a good primer of early B.B.
